* Update comments & logs
* Do not start beacon sync unless there is possibly something to do
why:
It would continue polling without having any effect other than
logging. Now it will not start unless there is RPC available
or there was a previously interrupted sync to be resumed.
* Accept finalised hash from RPC with the canon header as well
* Reorg internal sync descriptor(s)
details:
Update target from RPC to provide the `consensus header` as well as
the `finalised` block number
why:
Prepare for using `importBlock()` instead of `persistBlocks()`
* Cosmetic updates
details:
+ Collect all pretty printers in `helpers.nim`
+ Remove unused return codes from function prototype
* Use `importBlock()` + `forkChoice()` rather than `persistBlocks()`
* Update logging and metrics
* Update docu
* Update `ForkedChainRef` constructor
why:
Initialisation is based on the canonical head which is always zero
after resuming a stopped `ForkedChainRef` based import.
* Update new-base calculator
why:
There is some ambiguous code which might not do what the comment
implies. In short, an unsigned condition like `2u - 3u < 1u => false`
is coded where the comment suggests that `2 - 3 < 1 => true` is meant.
This patch fixes notorious crashes when resuming import after a stop.
* Cache content after lookups in history network.
* Cleanup config in PortalProtocol.
* Use local content lookup in history network to enable using cache.
* Enable content cache for state network.
* Update state json-rpc endpoints to return local content which uses cache if enabled.
* Add content cache metrics.
* Make content cache configurable.
* Add content cache tests.

This was the first API created for this, it has been superseded
by the API that makes use of era1 files and/or the portal_bridge.
Only usage was still in test_portal_testnet which has now been
altered to make use if API calls from Portal specification.
* Add validation functions to be used in state portal rpc.
* Add validation to remaining state portal rpc methods.
* Lookup local content in recursiveFindContent rpc methods.
* portal_stateFindContent and portal_stateOffer no longer store in db.
* Fix fringe condition clarifying how to handle an empty range
why:
The `interval_set` module would treat an undefined interval construct
`[2,1]` as`[2,2]` (the right bound being `max(2,1)`.)
* Use the `consensus head` rather than the `finalised` block as sync target
why:
The former is ahead of the `finalised` block.
* In ctx descriptor rename `final` field to `target`
* Update docu, rename `F` -> `T`
Portal beacon LC sync can be started now from a provided trusted
block root or, in case it has been running before, from a
previously verified and stored LC bootstrap.
This required altering the the beacon db on how the bootstraps
are stored.
These create only confusion as if they are actual different types
and it is within their usage already clear what they are about
because of the name of the variable or the function.
They are also nowhere aliased like this in any of the Portal
specification.
* Create separate portal rpc handlers for each sub-network.
* Remove random gossip from history and state networks.
* Move shared portal rpc endpoints into common handler.
* Use enum instead of network string.
